A BOY FOR YOUI (Humboldt, Calif., Times) "After a long talk on the value of peace, goodwill and disarmament, a teacher asked If the class objected to war. One boy said that he was op posed to it. Asked to give hit reason he said, "Because wars make history and I hate his tory!" AIR TERRORS The broadcast hero medal for this week goes to the Oregon State College-Washington bas ketball game announcer- Tues day evening, who outlasted the following competition: A cowboy girl trio from New Mexico, aided and abetted by a bull fiddle soloist; playing of phonograph records of John P. Sousa's march compositions; tablet sizzling in a glass of wa ter; three news commentators, and five newscasts; voice that kept repeating, "Your Uncle Dudley won't fool you;" disser tation on oil prospects in south eastern Arizona; frequent execu tion of "We Did It Before, and We'll Do It Again;" accounts of three other basketball games; and the squeallngest soprano wrst of the Rocky Mts.

If Spokane is a better and safer place to fabricate aluminum, while a war is on, then Spokane should get the nod. This is no time to allow local prides or Chamber of Commerce susceptibilities, interfere with the na tional war effort. Let the rule that decided the aluminum plant pro posal decide everything, what is best for the nation from the standpoint of waging a victorious war, and that alone. INCIDENTALLY this action should remove what indifference and lethargy may have existed in this state and the northwest, regarding the probabilities of the future. Were it not regarded as highly probable that Japan will get Singapore, the Philippines, and then turn its attention to Alaska and the Pacific coast of the Unit ed States, for ai least a token raid or two, perhaps more, The pleas of Portland for reconsideration, would scarcely have been turned down so promptly and so emphatically. MO, ladies and gentlemen, those may prove to be ' only "token raids", but this war in the Pacific is going to be no token war I As has been frequently stated in this department it is going to be a war to the finish, the most severe military and naval test in this nation's history, which will cost incalculable billions and hundreds of thou sands of American lives. Portland feels very badly about the loss of this $10,000,000 enterprise, and naturally so. But the time is not far distant, when such a purely material loss, will scarcely losses of a far more serious Is Demaree Bess A Liar? Demaree Bess' article in this week's Saturday Evening post, asserting that Japan double-crossed Germany in launching the Pacific war, is both uncalled for and dan gerous. It is uncalled for because no good purpose whatever could be served by making the American public believe that the axis is divided within itself not even if such division actually existed. It is dangerous because the American peo ple are thus encouraged to seek salvation in something be sides their own good right arms. They are encouraged to think of themselves being saved from battle by a falling-out among the thieves. The reality is that Bess has written a lie and the Post Is f living it to the nation. It was no double-crossed Rome-Ber-in partnership which declared war against the United States within hours after Japan had struck. Anyone who tries to tell us that is either a fool or his purposes are suspect.-- Portland Oregonlan. Well, well, them are strong words, neighbor! We grant the reputation of Brother Bess as an objective and reliable reporter is not of the best, for not so very many months ago, he proclaimed in the same SEV, categorically, that Russia was BEATEN 1 However that was an error in judgment, rather than in intention or capability. Many other close ob servers of the Russian scene drew the same conclu sion from facts then existing, one of them a distin guished authority appearing DUT the point that interests us is this: just HOW i " the Oregonian KNOWS "Bess has written a lie : and the Post is giving it to the nation." What is the source of its information? ; Bess doesn't deny that Berlin and Rome declared war on the United States shortly after Nippon did, but he clearly, and we think pretty convincingly, explains, that the European members of the Axis, could have done nothing else, for the appearance of Axis solidarity had to be maintained in their own self-interest. Germany, Bess maintains in effect, did not want Japan to attack the United States at Hawaii, but at tack Russia in Siberia, and Hitler exerted every pres sure he could to bring this about. But Japan refused to do that, just as Germany refused to support Japan in her non-aggression pact with Stalin. In short both countries went their own sweet way, considering their own selfish interests FIRST, the Axis being a practical reality only when the self interest of both countries happen to be served by concerted action. MOW Bess, of course, may be mistaken in his con- ' elusions. But being mistaken is one thing, being a deliberate liar is quite another. We are quite sure such a reliable and conservative newspaper as the Oregonian would not make such a serious charge against either a world wide reporter like Demaree Bess or the Saturday Evening Post, if it didn't have the facta to sustain it. We would like and we at e quite sure the people of the country would like to have those FACTS. Why Supprese the Truth?

Exereisei such as the movements of Dr. Brady the Last Brady Symphony de scribed and illustrated in "The 7 Keys to Vite" or the "setting-up" exercises given flabby young men at the beginning of their military training, or the calisthenic exercises given classes at the Y or in school are excellent. Hanging from bar or trapeze and trying to draw the feet toward or to the bar, is fine, but of course such exercise must be only briefly done at first fatigue and strain or mus cle soreness from excessive ef fort must be carefully avoided. Lying on the back, with feet anchored under some heavy chair or other furniture and pulling body -up to sitting po sition if a fine exercise to strengthen the weak muscles In cases of lordosis, swayback, pro tuberant belly, and in cases of scoliosis, as physicians call lat eral spinal curvature. Once is enough to do this at first, week by week Increase the number of times at a seance, until the movement Is done half a dozen times, then try doing it without anything to hold the feet down Braca Yourself, Soft, Weak and Flabby Bad posture is essentially a group of ptoses (saggings of organs and other bodily struc tures), and anything that lowers vitality and muscle tone In creases the tendency to bad pos ture. In childhood, youth and early adult life nutritional de ficiency, from inadequate daily intake of the essential vitamins B complex and D and the min erals calcium, phosphorus and iron which are largely re I moved by modern refinement oieparation and storage of food almost always calls for cor rection.

That is astronomical rr-form ! a a a A DEFECT of Mr. Wallace's dream is that he neglects to calculate how it is all going to be paid for. He is essentially a farm thinker. He thinks in terms of our farm surplusses being consumed In great quantities by remote poor nations. He even says the United States has made a start toward this world goal by the food stamp plan, the cotton-stamp plan, the home made government mattresses program and free lunch in the schools. Mr. Wallace neglects the fact that such things as a "free" lunch never existed. Until man acquires the power of creation, someone will always have to pay for a free lumh.

Flabblness or atony (lack of tone, atonic state) of the circu latory and alimentary muscle manifests itself in the many common functional troubles which are so often Ignored or shrugged off as a natural con dition of early life, or treated with a "good tonic." A "tonic" is a remedy which increases tone and restores or improves enfeebled function. The shortcoming of the familiar tonics of yesteryear was that they were empirical, that is, prescribed or. taken only be cause some one else had pre. scribed or taken the same con coction for similar trouble and seemed to be helped by it.

C Northwest Aided by Priority Chief Price Controller U Up Profit Keezer May Get Federal Offer , Br Jeha W. Kelt Washington, D. C, Jan. 22. Hop grower of the northwest needed wire to string up vines for 1942 crop and all the usual sources of supply were cut off. A note to Donald Nelson, and in three hours he had issued orders that the hop men be taken care of. West coast lum bermen found that one handi cap to building homes was a scarcity of nails; the factories were busy with more profitable items. A call to Nelson at noon, and at 2 p. m. he announced the nail mills had orders to produce immediately. These are but two instance in which Nelson has been of service to farmers and Industry in the Pa cific northwest. There is no procrastination about Nelson, now appointed to No. 2 place in the federal gov ernment, just one cut lower than the president, as adminis trator of production. His decis ions and orders are given blng bang, as instanced by the wire for hop men and nails for the. lumber industry. The familiar Washington run-around, which holds pleaders here for weeks and months before a decision is received, is no part of the Nelson make-up. Anyone who has come to the national cap ital and been kicked around by receptionists and secretaries through a dozen divisions of OPM, war and navy depart ments and finally heads for home with nothing accomplish ed, will appreciate Nelson's system and methods. The first day In SPAB Nel son introduced a system of col ored papers; red for this, yel low for that, pink for something else, and at a glance he knew the progress of any correspond ence. Then he initiated another shocker to Washington bureauc racy: all correspondence must be cleaned up every day no unanswered mall. IN the days ahead Donald Nelson will have much to do with the war Industries of the northwest His will be the re sponsibility for the building of merchant ships, destroyers, air planes, aluminum, magnesium and, if it is required, the pro- uui-uon oi lumDer. scarcely had the president announced Nelson's appoint ment and duties than the war department, the navy, maritime commission and OPM began working on the president to have their procurement divis ions excluded from direction by Neln.

FAT OF THE LAND FOR 'ACK' TROOPS IN WESTERN AREA Home Folks Adopt Boys On Guard Against Air Raid ers; Farmhouse Use Given Seattle, Jan. 22. P Anti aircraft troops stationed strateg ically about the Pacific nortn- west have become familiarly 'our boys" to the populace of towns and the cross-roads. How many of the "ack-ack boys are on duty, how many guns they have and where they are stationed, of course, are military secrets, but it's no sec ret that the housewives are beat ing paths to their dugout doors with cake, cookies and other gastronomic treats. A tour of a sector of the de fense front showed observers that the lads of this new citizen army have definitely caught on with the home folks. A farmhouse even fell to a unit at one rural spot, where the men have been billeted in floor-less tents in disagreeable winter weather. When a family moved out of a nearby farm house, the owner went to the sergeant in command and asked' 'Wouldn t you boys be more comfortable in the house?" Even a top sergeant couldn't argue over that suggestion. Farm Well Kept "I don't think I can find an other tenant," the farmer ex plained "and I know you boys will keep the house from run ning down." The comfortable soldiers, en Joying electric lights and fur nace heat, have pleased the landlord because the farm Is kept in apple pie order. Not many command posts have been as lucky, but at least one has been more ingenius. With an architect for a captain, they constructed a small fry barracks out of nine aviation engine packing cases. Windows contributed by the country folk brought light inside to match the modern design of the out side. Civilians aren't supposed to enter the military encampments, but it's almost a futile Job to try to keep them out in at least one of them. It is set up In a school yard. It was tough on the teachers at first, trying to keep the youngsters' mind on their books, but the situation Is reported back to normal. PASSENGER CAR SALES SHOWED 1941 INCREASE Salem, Jan. 21.
